    Summary

    Following the defeat of the Absolute, Astarion finds himself comfortably situated in the court of a kingdom shrouded in an eternal darkness. Admired by the royal family and its subjects with every luxury he could ever want at the snap of his figures – what more could he want?

    Well except perhaps the chance to stand in the sun again.

    Enter Raphael from stage right, the very devil he and his friends thought they killed over a year prior.

    Summary

    Astarion thought he was manipulating Tav with his clever seduction game. He's certain he's never made a bigger miscalculation when he finds himself imprisoned at the House of Hope.

    Gale and Wyll thought they knew Tav. Their judgment of character was severely lacking. It's not fondness for the vampire that sends them questing to find him at peril of their own lives. More like... moral loose ends.

    Summary

    Long ago, Astarion and the hero of Baldur's Gate prepared to face the future together.
    But after nearly a century of a life well lived, Astarion is hit with the cruel reality that immortals can only ever play at companionship, and isolation is the one constant he can truly expect. The enormity of facing the future alone is a heavy burden, and he does not want it.
    That's when the devil comes knocking.

    Chapter 6; Alkam laughed in disbelief. "I don't compel them. Our connection merely allows me to tell them what I need - mind to mind. There's no need for compulsion. They're free to do as they wish." Alkam shook his head and added. "You don't believe me, but it's true."

    This was leading to a conclusion too unsettling to entertain and Astarion wanted the conversation to end before it got there. "No spawn would serve their sire willingly," Astarion said with finality.

    Summary

    Tav betrayed two immortals when she handed the crown to Gale, ascending into godhood to leave the mistakes of her past behind.

    Astarion, left alone to figure out how to escape Cazador, turns to the only remaining power strong enough to pose a challenge to his vampiric master. To Raphael, the vampire spawn is both a tool and a means to the crown. They're going to have to work together if either of them hopes to see justice served.

    Summary

    It’s been one year since Ashley Graham was abducted by Los Iluminados; one year since she returned home to Washington D.C. and started taking self-defense classes, and one year since she last saw Leon Kennedy.

    There’s no denying she’s a different person since Spain. After graduating college, Ashley did the last thing anyone would have expected from America’s sweetheart; submitted herself for agent training in special ops.

    But the president will do anything to keep his daughter safe - including assign her a mentor who will make her training punishing, pushing her past the point of breaking in an effort to sway her decision. A mentor she trusts; someone who’s under disciplinary action for disobeying orders on a recent mission…

    And the last place Leon wants to be is in close proximity to Ashley fucking Graham. The girl whose heart he broke one year ago - and who he hasn’t stopped thinking about since.
